Stay in the heart of Devon’s lively seaside city of Torquay with the marina and trendy Royal William Yard within easy reach of this stylish two-bedroom coastal home. You’ll have plenty to keep you busy and in the evenings, this welcoming, contemporary property with bright interiors and high-tech facilities is the perfect place to unwind with your loved ones.

Make yourself at home in the spacious and bright open-plan lounge/kitchen diner with contrasting light and dark tones, plus floor-to-ceiling windows which let in the natural light. Muster up a special meal for your guests in the ‘L’-shaped kitchen with glossy cabinets and plenty of surface space. Next to this is the wooden dining table where you can gather for a banquet before putting your feet up on the sofa in front of the Smart TV or playing some music on the Alexa Smart Speaker and sipping a glass of wine. Completing the interior are two king-size bedrooms with Smart TVs – one of which with an en-suite plus a family bathroom. Outside, you can dine alfresco on the furniture beneath the parasol.

You don’t have to go far to find an array of excellent eateries, shops, bars, as well as the seafront (all within 1 mile). Stroll around Mount Wise Park (less than 0.5 miles) and soak up the views from the observation tower, or go for a dip in the open-air Mount Wise Pools. Explore the marina (0.5 miles) and stop by the photogenic Royal William Yard (1 mile), which is home to historic buildings, waterfront restaurants and stylish bars. The centre of Plymouth is 1.5 miles away, where you’ll find the aquarium, museum, theatre and historical attractions like the Merchant’s House.

We had a lovely week at this stylish modern apartment. Even though it is in a block we didnt hear any of the neighbours. It is set in a peaceful secure location. Everything was clean and comfortable. Communication with owner was easy. Close to many places of interest. Would highly recommend.

Skippers Corner is the most modern and best equipped apartment we have ever stayed in. Spotlessly clean,roomy,well laid out with lots of personal touches. The location is very quiet and secure.There is a Tesco express two minutes walk away which is very handy.All the little extra's supplied would rival a 5star hotel. Would highly recommend.

Spacious, bright and very clean flat. Very well equipped. Good security features for entry to car park and to flats. Great location with buses just minutes walk from the flat and a Tesco express within 2 minutes. Used the flat to walk sections of South West Coastal Path accessing via public transport for sections from Tregantle Fort to Noss Mayo.
